         <description><![CDATA[<div><strong>Who are you as a consumer? </strong><br>- I'm a kind of consumer who is wise especially when it comes in choosing the right product and services&nbsp; that I desire.<br><br><strong>When buying something, which do you weigh most, quality over price, or price over quality? </strong><br>-Pricing is important, but in the long-term, it's the quality that ensures to me as a paying customer to stay loyal to the brand. When buying something, for me it's the quality that matters because the better the quality of the product the better satisfaction that I will gain.<br><br><strong>What is the most common problem you've encountered as a consumer?</strong></div><div>​​-Faulty and unsafe products</div><div>​​-Refund, replacement, repair</div><div>-Poor quality or incomplete work</div><div>​​-Misleading prices or advertising</div><div><br><strong>Which do you prefer to buy, original brands or local brands?</strong> <br>- For me, A brand is a promise of certain level of quality, taste and overall experience. You always know what you are buying and you always know what to expect. While local products can certainly meet or exceed these expectations, there is always a risk of being disappointed. That’s why most customers choose what they know best, and those are most often branded products.<br><br><strong>Why should we Study about Consumer Education? <br>-</strong>Consumers are the main source of demand for all the goods. The producers of industrial goods or the producers of agricultural products are all producing the various items according to the demand in the market. Consumer education can help develop critical thinking and raise awareness, thereby enabling consumers to become more pro-active.</div>]]></description>
